ive been using divshare - but its been for relatively small files like one song or a video, not whole performances. is it slow for those? the good thing about divshare is that its got none of those icky ads that so many other sites depend on to keep it going. its hard explaining to your mom that your just downloading a show lol

i hate rapidshare, its bleeding slow. but i thought most people chose megaupload or somethng like that nowadays?

steve - i've been using filefront for many files of all sorts for a couple of years now, but not for full shows. i didnt have any problems

(btw, i don't see any porn links there, left or right - so maybe it's a hungarian specialty? :eek:)

Not porn exactly, but just sex:

"Having sex exactly when and how you want is all the rage for Hungarian babes as well, who do the deed more often than the women of any other country — 152 times per year, according to the 2003 Durex Global Sex Survey."

Ok,this is an off-topic and has nothing to do with the rapidshare thing. Sorry guys

gigasize, has porn links all down the right hand side. sendspace, well, I am lucky if it actually opens.

You're telling me that Rapidshare isn't chock full of porn ads while you wait your 5000 seconds for a download to be ready?

I can post some examples, if necessary.

Haha.
No need, but thanks.
I never saw any ads or anything IIRC on Vapidshare
Here's a screen shot.

BTW. They appear to be having an offer where there is no waiting time

KingOfSomeIsland · « **Reply #21 on:** June 02, 2008, 02:44:16 »

thats been in effect for a while. you dont have to wait or input a captcha code when their bandwidth is open enough. you still need to wait 100 years between files tho

we should just have a curefans torrent tracker...

japanesebaby · « **Reply #22 on:** June 02, 2008, 06:34:51 »

yeah, that "happy hours" deal is crap - the same awaiting time.

ok, it's starting to sound official: obviously they are offering you free premium slots for lobbying for them. right?

if people want really comfortable ways of filesharing, they use ftp or torrents.

japanesebaby · « **Reply #23 on:** June 07, 2008, 13:50:04 »

some people don't like megaupload because they have the reserved amount of download slots per country, and if you happen to be in a country where the slots are few, you run into this problem every now and then.
i've heard some people preferring rapidshare for this reason - yet i only just learned that rapidshare is not free of this either:

Error

You want to download the following file: ***************************

Currently a lot of users are downloading files. Please try again in 2 minutes or become a Premium member

Please note, the server is not going to check again within the next 2 minutes if downloading is possible again. To provide a fair platform, all user get the same options. Your last attempt was 30 seconds ago.

i've heard that with megaupload, you can override the "slot problem" by pretending to be from some other country than your own (i.e. to use for instance german or french site if you're not form those countries yourself). looks like with rapidshare you cannot override this at all because it's not based on "slots per country".

OMG no!
I didn't even think of that TBH. & I got a link this week from a Spanish friend & that was the first time I opened up the page to be greeted with dodgy looking spyware type dialogues flashing in my face.
On your megaupload point, you can, by translating the page into another language, sometimes trick it.
I also have access to 2 other servers via a vpn client. One in England & one in Germany, so if I get the "no slots available" message, I can go through another server (also beats the download limits

)
But, it is true that FTP & torrents are by far & away the easiest & prolly the safest way to share.

since spyware obviously seems to be one of your continuing worries, i would actually have a simple solution for you --> get a mac
i don't want to turn this into just another mac vs. pc threads but seriously, that'd be the end of all those continuous fears you seem to be having.

I know. I've been told that dozens of times LOL.
I'm using firefox now though & that seems to fend them off quite well.
My fears only really stem from the last time I got "bitten". Just being ultra cautious really.

I sometimes buy premium account to rapidshare because "I don't understand russian". I had a problem downloading anything in .rar or .zip with browser but the rapidshare download manager was actually spyware and adware free and good for that, no need to everytime give your password and login

psychophysio · « **Reply #28 on:** June 15, 2008, 20:48:02 »

I got a bit annoyed when I found out a premium account at rapidshare.com didn't give you premium access to rapidshare.de. I had an account for a few months when I was DL a lot of shows from another site and it helped quite a bit. I do prefer megaupload though (I have a lifetime account that I bought a few years ago when I first found this site and was DL all the mp3s I could lay my hands on

)

The heck with rapidshare or megaupload. FTP has always been the best private file transfer method, IMHO. FTP servers are easy to set up.
